** Description changed: - Local denial of service via memory exhaustion caused by repeatedly - opening and closing the /dev/cuse device file. A local attacker, with - admin privileges, could use this flaw to exhaust all available memory. + Memory leak in the cuse_channel_release function in fs/fuse/cuse.c in + the Linux kernel before 4.4 allows local users to cause a denial of + service (memory consumption) or possibly have unspecified other impact + by opening /dev/cuse many times.
